The last Matthau/Lemmon movie and really great for anyone that likes either.

The comedy duo has done it again. This is basically Grumpiest Old Men only with a new supporting cast. The jokes were hysterical in most cases, and the plot was a tad flimsy, but who needs those when you've got two late, great actors in the spotlight? Definitely a movie for your comedy collection.

the grumpys are back even though this was their last film together out to sea is a funny comedy with the 2 funnymen

I love these 2 together, but this is nowhere near as good as the Grumpy Old Men set. Dyan Cannon looks amazing for her age (60). I wouldn't have guessed she was over 40! Pretty funny, but had some slow parts. A feel good comedy at the end.

Enjoyable, but it?s rather predictable and mundane. What does bring it to life is the array of great stars in the film, outside of them, it?s rather forgettable.

I love watching Jack Lemon and Walter Matthau work together. And again, they are surrounded by a first rate cast. It was awesome seeing Hal Linden in this. I wasn't too sure whatever happened to him. Brent Spiner was also hilarious. He had such great chemistry with Matthau that I couldn't wait to see what happened between the two in the next scene. Predictable, but it is always magic when Lemmon and Matthau get together.

I am always a Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon duo fan. Though "Out to Sea" isn't much different from their grumpy men movies, seeing those two old guys clash always makes me happy.

Such a cute movie! Matthau and Lemmon are great together as usual. The plot is simple, but enjoyable. Filled with great supporting actors like Donald O'Connor, Hal Linden, Dyan Cannon and Gloria DeHaven.

The only movie I can truly say that impacted me directly in a negative way... financially that is. By this time the formula only appealed to those close to death.
Damn this movie!

Jack and Walter in once again. Walter gets Jack to take a cruise on or just after his anniversary of him and his wife and Walter does not tell Jack that they are going to be Dance Hosts on this cruise Ship. Good All around movie.

Lemmon and Matthau. One of my all time favorite pairings. This isn't their greatest work together, but still...not bud.

Thank God for these two giants of the silver screen. I absolutely loved this last movie these two Icons did together. Besides, it was still very funny. They were the best.

Another movie featuring the Odd Couple no being the Odd Couple but really really being the Odd Couple and quite annoying.
May 12, 2006
This is standard fair comedy and definitely not the quality expected from its fine actors. Come on old guys....you're funnier than this.

A rotten, one-legged turkey with two tired performances from once-great Lemmon and Matthau who should really consider retiring.
January 14, 2011
I've seen funnier and better written Lemmon-Matthau movies, but if you like this pair, you'll like this movie

A comedy for the older generation. The younger crowd would not be able to relate very well. It is very much a 90's product of two older gentlemen.

Their odd couple personalities remain strong and still a great comedic team.

The movie falls short in certain areas. Especially in the plot area.

For a comedy it lacked a certain level of freshness. The jokes were quite old and nothing got more than a chuckle. There was really no LOL moments to speak of.

I recommend this movie for older people on a rainy day. For anyone other than that I would not recommend this movie. So the 90% that I gave this is only for a select few. For the rest of the people that do not fall into the above description I would give this a 30%.
